China Issues Rules For Digital Humans
China's Cyberspace Administration on April 4, 2026 published draft rules to regulate "digital humans," requiring prominent labeling and barring virtual intimate relationships for users under 18. The draft also forbids creating digital humans from others' personal data without consent and restricts politically sensitive, sexual, violent, or addictive content; it is open for public comment until May 6. The rules align with broader AI governance goals.
Scoring Rationale
Official draft from China's cyberspace regulator carries high credibility, scope, and direct requirements for developers and platforms. Scored high for actionability and relevance; slightly moderated because it's a draft with limited technical detail but is timely and authoritative.
